We are using some Zotac Zbox PI330 series which have windows home 10 N installed on it. The problem is i can’t get the video working. I’ve tried VLC and K-lite and every works fine outside xibo but when xibo starts i get a black screen.
The log:

I made a test-layout with one video (mp4), duration 63 seconds. The video is uploaded to CMS en the client has downloaded it. So i guess i’m using local video module
If it was uploaded to the CMS, then you’re using regular video module.
I believe that this:
Is most likely the problem, from what I’ve read the N version comes without window media player and it needs to be installed manually - you can download that from Microsoft.
Please do that and then try again to play your layout in Xibo.
